試題分析：本文介紹了螞蟻的四大人生哲理。一，決不放棄；二，向前看；三，保持樂觀；四，做你所能做的一切。

1.What a great philosophy to have- the ant philosophy: never give up，螞蟻的偉大的哲學(xué)理念就是決不放棄……，故選A。

2.2】考查名詞辨析。A螞蟻；B戰(zhàn)爭；C方式；D洞穴。前文提到螞蟻絕對不會(huì)放棄，故如果他們?nèi)ツ硞�(gè)地方，而你試圖去阻止的話，他們會(huì)尋找另一個(gè)方法或者通路。故選C。

3.3】考查名詞辨析。A計(jì)劃；B態(tài)度；C政策；D觀點(diǎn)。由You can’t be so na?ve as to think summer will last forever.你不能很自然地就認(rèn)為夏天會(huì)永遠(yuǎn)持續(xù)，以及螞蟻人生哲理的第二條仔考慮夏天和冬天，可知，這是一個(gè)很重要的態(tài)度。故選B。

4.4】考查名詞辨析。A稻草；B水果；C衣服；D食物。所以螞蟻們在夏天中期的時(shí)候就一直在收集他們冬天的食物。故選D。

5.5】考查動(dòng)詞辨析。A警告；B享受；C提醒；D教導(dǎo)。在冬天，他們提醒自己，冬天不會(huì)持續(xù)很長時(shí)間，我們很快就能從這里出去。用warn的話語氣太過強(qiáng)烈，表達(dá)較主觀，故選C。

6.6】考查動(dòng)詞辨析。A提供；B等待；C期盼；D管理。從前文知，他們提醒自己，冬天不會(huì)持續(xù)很長時(shí)間，我們很快就能從這里出去。所以他們實(shí)際上是迫不及待想要出去。can’t wait to迫不及待做……，故選B。

7.7】考查副詞辨析。A最近地；B盡可能地；C大地；D通常地、普遍地。上文問，在夏天螞蟻會(huì)為冬天準(zhǔn)備多少呢？文章最后一段也提到do all you can.盡你可能地去做，故可知螞蟻所實(shí)行的就是竭盡所能去做，故選B。

8.8】考查形容詞辨析。A樂觀的；B積極的、活躍的；C體貼的、考慮周到的；D消極的。根據(jù)前文“在冬天，他們提醒自己，冬天不會(huì)持續(xù)很長時(shí)間，我們很快就能從這里出去�！笨梢娢浵亗兪窃诠膭�(lì)自己要保持積極樂觀地心態(tài)地度過這段艱難時(shí)期。故選C。

Mozilla has shown off a prototype(雛形) for a $25 (?15) smart phone that is aimed at the developing world.

The company, which is famed mostly for its Firefox browser(瀏覽器), has partnered with the Chinese low-cost chip maker Spreadtrum.

While not as powerful as more expensive models, the phone will run apps and make use of mobile internet.

It would appeal to the sorts of people who currently buy cheap “feature” phones, analysts said.

Feature phones are highly popular in the developing world as a halfway point between “dumb” phones --- just voice calls and other basic functions --- and fully-developed smart phones.

Mozilla hopes that it will take an early lead in a market that is now being targeted by mobile phone producers who see the developing world as the remaining area for massive growth.

It will face fierce competition from bigger, more popular brands, however --- with more announcements of this kind expected over the course of the next couple of days at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.

“These solutions expand the global accessibility of open web smart phones to first-time and entry-level smart phone buyers by reducing the time and cost required for handset makers to bring these phones to market,” said Spreadtrum in a press statement.

Mozilla said the phone “redefines”(重新定義) the entry-level phone market.

The concept of a cheap smart phone may seem likely to appeal to consumers in developed countries, particularly those who locked into long contracts in order to pay part of the cost of the likes of the Apple iPhone and Samsung Galaxy range.

But analyst Carolina Milanesi, from Kantar World panel, said it should not be seen as a competitor.

1.Which of the following is true about the $25 smart phone?

A. It has all the functions of an iPhone.

B. It is specially designed for the developed world.

C. It will attract the present “feature” phone users.

D. It is made by the Chinese low-cost chip maker Spreadtrum.

2.What is the feature of a “feature” phone?

A. Though cheap, it can completely replace the iPhone.

B. It is just used for voice calls and other basic functions.

C. It has nearly all the functions of a fully-developed smart phone.

D. Its functions are between those of a “dumb” phone and a fully-developed smart phone.

3.We can learn from the text that at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona ________.

A. new cheap smart phones will beat high-end ones

B. the $25 smart phone coming from Mozilla will be the best seller

C. quite a few companies will announce their new cheap smart phones

D. Mozilla will be the only company to announce its new cheap smart phone

4.Which of the following held a negative attitude towards the cheap smart phone?

A. Mozilla. B. Spreadtrum.

C. Samsung. D. Carolina Milanesi.

At first Kate thought the Romanian girl could not speak and understand English. Nadia would not reply to anything Kate said. Kate was in charge of（負(fù)責(zé)）showing Nadia around on her first day at Buck Minister Grade School. Kate could not figure out why the school had put Nadia in a class where she could not understand what people were saying.

“Why did they do this?” Kate wondered aloud. “I mean, you can’t learn if you can’t understand the teacher.”

Nadia’s voice was a whisper (speaking in a very low voice). “I understand English. I will learn.” Nadia’s English was perfect.

Kate was perplexed. She couldn’t understand why Nadia did not like to speak. Then she realized that moving to a new country probably wasn’t the easiest thing to do. There were hundreds of unfamiliar and unusual things to learn – all at the same time.

“There’re a lot of new things to learn, huh?” said Kate.

Nadia nodded rapidly. In a quiet voice she replied, “Many things people say, I do not understand. I have been speaking English and Romanian all my life, but I do not know what some children are saying. For example, yesterday a boy asked if I could help him find the USB port on a thin black box he was carrying. Isn’t a port a place for ships? It made no sense to me.”

“Don’t worry.” said Kate. “You’ll figure everything out in time. You see, that thin black box was a computer. A USB port is a place where you can connect other machines to a computer.”

Nadia and Kate were quiet after that. They took notes while the teacher gave a maths lesson. To Kate’s surprise, Nadia put up her hand and offered to answer the questions at the blackboard.

Nadia handled every question the teacher gave her. Some of the questions were really difficult, and no one understood what was going on except Nadia and the teacher. When the teacher said that Nadia answered everything correctly, the whole class clapped their hands.

Nadia was smiling when she sat back down next to Kate. “Some things,” she said in a normal voice, “are the same all over the world.”

1. At the beginning of Nadia’s first day at school, she was____________.

A. disappointed. B. helpful.

C. lively. D. shy.

2. The underlined word “perplexed” probably means ____________.

A. spellbound. B. angry.

C. shocked. D. serious.

3. We can infer（推斷）from the passage that _____________ .

A. Nadia did not like Kate.

B. Nadia had lived by the sea before.

C. Nadia had never seen a computer before.

D. Nadia spoke in soft voice out of politeness.

4.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Nadia was better at maths than other students.

B. Nadia found some of the maths questions difficult.

C. Nadia was encouraged to answer questions in class.

D. Nadia understood the maths teacher better than other teachers.

5.What is the message of the story?

A. Talking about something familiar gives you confidence in communication.

B. Answering questions in class makes you better understood by classmates.

C. Language plays an important role in communication between cultures.

D. Maths helps to improve communication between cultures.
